Art In Rembrandt

All throughout history art has been around to appeal to those who were willing to take the time to understand it. While a large majority can appreciate art in itself, it is clear that not everyone has the patience or sometimes are just not even willing to attempt, to appreciate it. In the last century or so film has brought art to the attention of a larger audience through a way that, to many, comes across as more appealing. The earliest films were typically one static shot that showed an event or action with no editing or anything else of that sort. At around the beginning of the 20th century, film makers started putting several scenes together to tell a story. The scenes were later broken up into multiple shots of differently angled photographs Over time, techniques such as moving cameras developed as an effective way to tell a story with film. Some of those stories told are about art, artists, or have a very strong artistic factor about them.
The film follows the life of Dutch painter Rembrant Harmenszoon van Rijn at the height of his fame in 1642 following the death of his wife, until the year of his death
